Paseo Habana Information

Paseo Habana is an intimate, service-oriented hotel surrounded by beautiful houses in the heart of Vedado, the modern part of Havana. The hotel offers 30 air-conditioned guestrooms including 4 rooms for people with a disability. Within a few blocks of the hotel you’ll find the buzzing 23rd Avenue, popular with young and old for its many attractions such as a variety of cinema’s, the famous Coppelia ice-cream parlor, restaurants, bars and the excellent LaZorra y el Cuervo jazz club.

My wife and I were there for a week and found it excellent. The hotel has 3 floors and I recommend that you try for a 3rd floor room looking north towards the Malecon. On this side you will have to contend with the neighbours' roosters every morning, but for us that was a minor thing. The hotel is new and therefore almost everything works, unlike many hotels in Cuba. While we were there, there was no internet, and you could not make outgoing phone calls (but incoming OK!). Regarding location, it is in Vedado, which is primarily a middle class residential neighbourhood. You cannot just walk out your door to Old Havana - you could walk, but it would be a hike (45 min or more). A cab costs $6CUC. However, there is whole lot more to see and do in Havana than just Old Havana -- including in Vedado itself, so for us this was a good location.

The staff were friendly; the place was spotless; the breakfast was good; and it was very good value. My wife is very picky and she said she would definitely stay there again.

My husband and I stayed at the Paseo Habana for the first time and found the hotel to be very clean and in a very safe neighborhood we found it easy to walk to several things like the bank and restaurants and a museum. Breakfast in the morning was always good but not a lot of choices. Our only negative observation
was that the air conditining in the room was not very cold and you could only turn it down to certain point....ceiling fans in the rooms would help...also there was no iron available in the hotel..carry you own bath rags as those are not provided nor is shampoo or blow dryers. Overall for the price it was a nice stay and we would stay there again.
